The Stroke Foundation has teamed up with Made From New Zealand to offer some very special t-shirts for blokes against strokes. Each of the tees has a great yarn attached - a thread of merino wool spun with one of the late Sir Edmund Hilary's climbing socks.  Tees cost $40, including GST and postage, and $20 will go to the Stroke Foundation to help save lives and improve stroke outcomes. Order your t-shirt from www.4stroke.co.nz >
